Hi,

I am little bit new to lvm concept but i've set up a lvm volume on a raid1
as follow :
i have two physical disks sda and sdb. They have both 2 partitions which
makes the md0 and md1 of the raid. I've set up the /boot on the md0 and an
lvm (called RaidLvm) on md1 (with 4 partitions /, /usr, /home and /var).
Everything works fine. The problem began when i added a bunch of two disks
(hda and hdb) with no raid but a large lvm partition over the two of them
(called data) (this lvm comes from a previous computer).
When i try to boot, the kernel finds the data lvm but cannot find the
RaidLvm
and just stops booting...
I've tried to export the data lvm, but that doens't help...

Any idea?

Thanks,
Franky
